World hacker sign up
A screen glowing ominously amidst a sea of black.
A rapid succession of key clicks A muffled chuckle And then… “The world can remember, it has a soul of its own.” The words returned to him like a reprimand. “It has a soul” he thought, “but no mind, not yet…” Laughter, course and riotous, filled the empty laboratory. “I’m turning into a stereotype,” he thought, as his laughter subsided. “But I suppose that’s acceptable, after all… …an easily understood god is better than a mysterious one.” Hello to all you crazy NPFers out there! I’m starting a new rp, this will be my sophomore effort. I’m looking for about six to eight people to sign up, and then hopefully we’ll have some fun with this. Here’s the idea, in the near future an interesting vein of physics has evolved. A culmination of many things, some considered to be pseudo science or downright superstition. Science has approached the limits of its usefulness, and the age-old questions still remain. Who are we? What are we? Why are we? What is a soul? You are to be thrust into the role of one who will witness the genesis of a new reality, who will help to shape a future in the past, a past that does not exist yet. But I’m getting ahead of myself, your character is basically just a normal person in modern society, no special powers or over the top abilities, no dodging bullets or flying. In fact, they could very well be you. Whoever they are, destiny has a lot in store for them. The dodging bullets comes later. Make up a character that has a reasonable chance of hanging around high security research laboratories. The template is simple: Name: any old handle will do Age: how long ya been ‘round? Height and weight: just the basics Physical appearance: blue hair? Only if you’re some kind of punk rocker History: just a brief synopsis of what your character has been doing, no saving the world or any such thing, just educational and personal history. Family members and that sort of thing. Outlook: try and sum up your characters philosophy in a few sentences. (or paragraphs.) Occupation: why is your character hanging around research labs? (example: scientist, security guard, teenage child of employee, drink cart girl, executive, maintenance man.) After the characters are posted here, I’ll start the thread. Easy right? |
